Sometimes by Tuesday or so, December 12th, I will post my 600th post here on Virily. I posted roughly a little more than that on Niume (yes I still miss the community of Niume). It would seem a milestone but not really. I post every day. Two posts a day adds up quickly. Plus I try to share movie reviews and poems on the weekends, so things begin to add up quickly. In that posting frenzy I find that I spend 1-2 hours or so a day on Virily as a site. I would like to spend more of my time on the site reading other bloggers works, and less time sorting through the comments on the site at this point. That is my only real big complaint today about Virily.
Overall its good site for sharing, and a good site for the most part for connecting with people. Given that I have been using the platform for the past few months I do have a few suggests that I think would make the process and site flow better. The first is to separate the Virly’s people get. Comments should be in a separate container so that you can quickly answer all of them. I get 40-50 comments a day, and I doubt that I am even in the higher end of that. I do try to answer every question asked. I do also hate the copy paste comments that some people think are acceptable. Seriously? It takes time to respond to comments on Virily now, please don’t waste my time.
To wrap up my technology blog and veer away from talking about blogging platforms there are a couple of interesting things floating around right now. The first is the update of iOS to 11.2. Get this one as soon as you can; there are some fixes that will improve both your iPad and iPhone experience. There are some critical Windows 10 patches coming, but they are more towards the end of this month, so I won’t bring them up now!
I also love the site. I write for other places and I have my own blog so I am not here as much as I would like.
I am not here as much as I should be also. I post here first and on my WordPress blogs second. But I have several other blogs that I also post too…
Year, Numie was good for a community. I agree with some of your comments, like being able to select, or deselect your stream content.
and messages.. yep it is hard and slow to reply to all.
It is, blogging as a platform continues to expand and grow…
I agree with you fully Doc. Also, maybe add Facebook plug-ins as some of my followers want to comment but don’t want to register with virily.
That is a great feature – I suspect that would be very hard for them however.
600 posts! ??? Amazing…I write for 4 sites but I cannot do that many ?. Not even in my WordPress. Now, seriously, peeps copy-paste comments? If I start doing that at this point I am quite sure you will know hahaha
Peeps sadly do copy paste comments. It is really sad. I guess I write too much.
I dunno. I think if one does not want to spend time in commenting then why not just use the upvote and reaction buttons? Lol! It is a way for me to work out my gray cells you see. Haha! And I think for as long as you are happy writing too much, then it is fun and great.
Thanks, 🙂 I wonder why people copy and paste the same comment all the time. I don’t even do that when I am saying the same thing about images over and over (some people post amazing artwork, I never know what to say).
